    1st snow challenge 2024

    Remember that weights attached to the chassis translates to weight on the wheel bearings ( or bushings in most cases and you may want to rethink that as the bushings are small and soft metal. Wheel weights ( including filling the tubes halfway with water does a marvelous job of creating traction...

    Why won't my tractor run??????

    If it starts runs then dies, that is a huge clue towards fuel flow issues, and the in-tank filter ( if fitted) or the feed from the tank being a restriction, best to take the tank off, blow out the fuel lines to the carb. Blow back the tank outlet and reflush the tank with fresh petrol. I had...

    CC 125 pto clutch removal

    I dont want to "state the obvious" but do you know that there are three holes for set screws, and TWO set screws in each hole, one with a sharp pointy nose and the other with a stubby nose. I say "statin the obvious"because many folk dont know that the second set screw is there to lock the...

    Monkeying around in Shultzie's garage

    old Roman Chariots had long blades fitted to those hub extenders you have ... to presumably cut the spokes of opposition chariots or the horses legs I guess (the SPCA might have a few words to say about that practice) but since we are monkeying around, lets see who can come up with the most...

    Steering wheel

    Rod, DO NOT HIT IT WITH A HAMMER ! ( you will damage the steering box below. Apply penetrating oil, have a cuppa tea, walk away after more penetrating oil, loosen the retaining nut a few turns, not completely, just 1/8" of slack, then practice this, sit in the seat, (with a block of wood or a...

    Parts for rebuilding the steering column on 100

    Shhhh..... has anyone whispered that many of the older green and yealla mud sucker (always broken lawn tractors) also used a very similar if not identical (but for length) worm gear steering box. So when you've battered the thread part at the top of the column to loosen the steering wheel...

    Low compression on K321 engine

    It was only when (by purely fortuitous coincidence) I saw Matt's post in "Its Alive" post above yesterday that the braincell engaged with the gear (infrequent as that might be) as it shows the three sets of double grub screws holding the pulley to the collar, not directly to the shaft and the...

    Low compression on K321 engine

    Terry, Hi from across the pond, ... just a gentle word of encouragement with a hint of warning, READ THE MANUAL on the front PTO removal (and reconstruction) twice, plus.
